Inmate escapes from corrections center

Authorities are looking for an inmate who escaped from the Minnehaha County Corrections Center on Friday night.

Kai Conrad Hansen escaped from the facility at 1900 W. Russell St. at around 9:10 p.m. He was last seen running westbound, the Minnehaha County Sheriff's Office said.

Hansen stripped off his jail-issued clothes and would likely be wearing a black shirt and either shorts or underwear. He was originally charged with several burglaries and theft, the sheriff's office said.

"There is no reason at this time to believe that the public is in danger," the sheriff's office said.

Anyone with information on Hansen is asked to call 367-7000.
